History[]
Debut[]
D.A.V.E. was created by Professor Hugo Strange by using funding from Roman Sionis. The night Strange decided to premier D.A.V.E., Bruce Wayne, Commissioner Gordon, Vicki Vale, Mayor Sebastian Hady, Deputy Mayor Daniel Dickerson and Roman Sionis were present. Strange then revealed that D.A.V.E. was programed with the brainwaves of Arkham Asylum's worst criminals. Strange also revealed that D.A.V.E.'s artificial intelligence was so advenced that D.A.V.E. didn't even realize that he was not human. Strange created D.A.V.E. to help the police predict the actions of various criminals. However, D.A.V.E. managed to upload himself from Arkham Asylum's server to another one located in a factory which he used to build himself a robotic body.
Attack on Gotham[]
Sometime later D.A.V.E. went to see Black Mask. Black Mask attempted to defend himself. However, D.A.V.E. was very powerful and ran Black Mask out of his own office. D.A.V.E., on live television, was then able to steal all the money out of the bank accounts of the citizens of Gotham. Batman then traveled to Wayne Enterprises and and got a flash drive from Lucius Fox which contained a computer virus. Batman then went to the Gotham Broadcasting Company and confronted D.A.V.E. When Batman placed the flash drive nothing happened and D.A.V.E. revealed that he expected this and that he installed a virus protection program. D.A.V.E. then shoots Batman with a stun ray and D.A.V.E. gets away.
Batman's identity[]
D.A.V.E. then realized that if he wanted to rule Gotham's underworld he would have to kill Batman. D.A.V.E. then ran calculations in his computer mind and discovered that Batman was really Bruce Wayne. Later that night D.A.V.E. attacked Batman in the Batcave. At first it appeared that D.A.V.E. was beating Batman. However, Batman was just distracting D.A.V.E. to give Alfred Pennyworth enough time to turn on an EMP generator. This was able to shut down D.A.V.E
